Chapter 16
: Could it be that something eerie has awakened?!
Forty minutes had passed since the start of the soul-awakening ceremony.
Of the 23 people present who had awakened their innate beast taming or beast master talents, Su Ya and Lu Dong had already examined the soul foundations of 21 of them.
"11 people have potential at the F level, 7 people have potential at the E level, 2 people have potential at the D level, and 1 person has potential at the C level."
"There are two D-level potential candidates and one C-level potential candidate. Not only is the quantity good, but the quality is also quite good."
"The other two little ones will definitely bring us even more surprises."
As she spoke, Su Ya first glanced at the documents, then looked intently at Zhong Yi and Zhong Ling.
Zhong Ling and Zhong Yi are both in the state of soul foundation awakening, but Su Ya is unable to see the scenery inside Zhong Ling and Zhong Yi's soul foundation at this time.
This situation indicates that the two have extremely high potential, and their soul foundation needs more energy stimulation to be activated.
Ten minutes had passed since the C-level potential user completed his awakening.
Awakening at this point, even if it's just awakening one's innate beast taming or beast master talent, at least the potential can be classified as B-level.
"Sister Suya, that little girl with C-level potential has awakened her innate beast type, which is healing. Our Beast Tamer Association can try to recruit and train someone with such potential."
Among all the natal beasts, the awakening rate of healing-type natal beasts is the lowest.
Healing-type beast tamers are in high demand by all beast tamers.
A healing-type beast tamer with potential at grade C is more valuable than a combat-type beast tamer with potential at grade B.
Su Ya did not respond to Lu Dong's words because she discovered that there was finally some scenery emerging in Zhong Ling's originally chaotic soul base.
Thunder rumbled and lightning flashed across the sky, as lightning slashed across the earth like arrows.
After the thunder, the storm swept across the ravine-lined land, wiping out all life.
This is a scene of utter disaster that, if glimpsed even slightly, would send shivers down one's spine.
Su Ya and Lu Dong's hearts jumped. Could such a calamity be the birth of a monster?
If a monster were to be born, it would be such a waste of this girl's potential!
Just then, the two suddenly noticed that as thunder rolled across the dark clouds and lightning illuminated the earth, a butterfly with fluttering wings came with the storm.
This butterfly danced dazzlingly and aloofly in the sky, its wings fluttering through dark clouds, thunder, and storms, and the whole world became quiet as the butterfly fluttered its wings!
From the shimmering glow of the sunset to the waning twilight, and then to the sweltering heat of summer and the harsh winter, the butterfly's dance seems endless.
At this moment, Su Ya and Lu Dong breathed a sigh of relief. Judging from the subsequent scenes, what awakened in the girl's soul base was not something strange.
These scenes suggest that this girl has amazing potential!
As the butterfly fluttered, a rhythmic thumping sound suddenly rang out from afar.
Every beat of this sound could shatter the clouds in the sky and stir up the flowing mist.
Gradually, a majestic outline emerged—a giant, pulsating cocoon!
Two main images appeared in her soul base, which excited Su Ya so much that she started wagging her tail.
The appearance of these two main images means that the girl named Zhong Ling, number 313, awakened her innate beast taming ability as well as her talent as a beast tamer.
The butterfly landed on the giant cocoon, but did not linger there for long.
Instead, it circled the entire world, returning to where the thunder and storm originally began.
Amidst this scene of disaster, the butterfly landed on the pile of corpses.
The fluorescent white flames resembled camellias blooming in the mountains, lighting up one after another.
These fluorescent white flames ignited on the corpses, and the corpses, as the flames ignited, swayed and rose from the ground.
Amidst the sweeping storm and thunder, a decaying vitality was revealed, and the butterfly turned into ink at that moment.
Suya couldn't help but say excitedly.
"The natal beast of the undead type, the beast tamer's talent is clearly related to the natal beast."
"This is definitely A-level potential, and it might even be rated A+."
"Lu Dong, you go and contact that little guy whose natal beast taming ability is a healing-type C-level potential. I'll contact Zhong Ling and try to invite her to join the Beast Tamer Association."
Only 1 in 1,000 Beastmasters can obtain a B-level potential rating after awakening through the Soul Awakening Ceremony.
Official organizations are already willing to sincerely recruit such talent.
Unlike B-level potential, which might appear in one out of 2 people, A-level potential is something that might not appear in one out of 10 people.
Moreover, Zhong Ling's rating is likely to be more than just A!
Su Ya was already thinking about what kind of sincerity she should show on behalf of the Beast Tamer Association when she was recruiting Zhong Ling.
Beastmasters whose natal beast is of the necromancer type may not be strong in individual combat, but their ability in group combat far surpasses that of other types.
In exploring secret realms, group combat ability is often what a team lacks most.
The more Su Ya thought about it, the more she valued Zhong Ling's potential!
The undead type's natal beast does not need to be healed, which can greatly reduce the healing pressure on the team.
A necromancer-type natal beast with strong group combat capabilities can be adapted to any team.
Lu Dong heard that Su Ya was somewhat dissatisfied with his arrangements, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Because Su Ya, as the main awakener, was indeed more qualified than herself to represent the Beast Tamer Association and invite a genius with A-level potential like Zhong Ling.
"Sister Suya, it's been almost an hour. Look, there's still no scenery appearing inside Soul Foundation #314. Could something have happened to it?"
Su Ya looked at Zhong Yi, her eyes changing from expectation to worry.
The soul-awakening ceremony lasts for one hour; this is not an arbitrary setting.
Stimulated by external soul power for more than an hour, it can cause the soul foundation to collapse.
Even those chosen ones complete the soul-awakening ritual in about 50 minutes.
With one minute left in the soul-awakening ceremony, which would last for an hour, Su Ya hesitated, wondering if she should end the ceremony once the hour was up if no scenery appeared in the young man's soul base.
When Su Ya was looking at the information, she discovered that Zhong Ling, number 313, used the name Zhong Yi Shaonian, number 314, to perform the soul-awakening ceremony.
Since both of them share the surname Chung, they must have a very deep relationship.
Su Ya wanted to win over and invite Zhong Ling to join the Beast Tamer Association, so she naturally couldn't let Zhong Yi show any surprises.
After much deliberation, Suya finally decided to stop releasing her soul power immediately after one hour and halt the soul-awakening ceremony.
Otherwise, if something were to happen to this boy, I, as the chief awakener, would take full responsibility.
However, just a second before Su Ya was about to withdraw her soul power, she finally saw the scenery that appeared in Zhong Yi's soul base.
